Deleting Records through CIM

You can use CIM to delete records created with any of the programs listed in Programs with batchdelete Functionality. In each of these programs, an updateable, single-character field, batchdelete, exists at the end of the header- and detail-record key frames. This field can be updated only when the program is accessed through a batch process, that is, when batchrun = true.

Note: When you press Ctrl+F in a field of a program with batchdelete enabled, a pop-up window appears, indicating that you can use batch delete. You can do this in the character and Windows interfaces.

Because the batchdelete value exists at the end of key frames, it does not affect existing CIM input files and can be omitted from these files when not used. Since it is only one character, unlabeled, and hidden, the field also does not change the visible interface.
